Density-driven Circulation

Density-Driven Circulation is a hydrodynamic process in estuarine and coastal systems wherein fluid motion is generated and sustained by spatial gradients in water density, primarily due to differential distributions of salinity and temperature, leading to gravitational circulation such as in salt wedge and fjord estuaries.
